About the author
Amy Harrop
15 books16 followersI’ve been an avid writer and reader all of my life. I have a diverse background, and have found I’m happiest running my own business. I currently live in the Southern California area with my husband and our two cats.
I have a B.A. in Film Production and after graduation, headed down to Los Angeles to work in the film industry. While I love movies, I didn’t really like working in the film industry, and spend several years as a successful sales consultant, I also worked as a high school English teacher. (As I mentioned, I have a diverse background….)
About 6 years ago, I got involved in book dealing, and opened up my own business. Once I became self-employed, I’ve never looked back. I’ve been an Internet Marketer, Author, and Content publisher for over 4 years.

I love free info.
The author was kind enough to make this book permafree.
Unfortunately, I could not give this book a five-star rating because it was too short. It's possible that the author chose to make this a short book to help get her name out there, as well as help other people. Noble.
There are great resources to use and I zoomed right through the material. It was interesting, simple, and good.

A few good resources
I didn't feel like the author had much to say that I hadn't already heard but she does offer some good resources.

Good read
Cool read if you're looking to get away from the traditional 9-5 and do your own thing. This book names several excellent ideas for doing exactly that. Great little read.

I work full time in retail, and have been selling digital products online for a few years now. I was curious about this book as I've been thinking about becoming a virtual assistant for authors, since I am also a book blogger. I thought this book would address becoming a virtual assistant, along with other ideas for making a little bit of extra cash in ways I hadn't thought of before.
On that, I was a little disappointed. The author, Harrop, does suggest a broad range of ideas for making money online, but actually left out quite a few things I already do (and have been doing for years) to make extra money online - "to leave the job behind" so to speak - like answering surveys, using rebate / coupon apps, etc. Definitely not "get rich quick" schemes, but the extra income does help.
What Harrop does talk about, she does well, though I was a little disappointed that on each individual topic, she just includes links to other websites instead of telling us the information herself. I don't mind a few links to expand upon the topic, but I feel when an author writes a paragraph or two introducing us to a subject and then leaves links to other writers, it's a co-op and lazy to boot.
I still am rating the book four stars however, because this is a great starting point, especially if you've never thought about trying to make extra income online, and she does mention some great resources that one may not have heard of before.

I received a book for free in order for my honest opinion. I was not paid for my review.

Not quite ready to leave my job
This was a quick read and it provided a lot of good information regarding working for yourself. I found a lot of value in the links, which helped to illustrate her points. The author does a good job in writing, I felt as though the book kept my attention and I didn't notice any errors.
